What carb are you running? Jet sizes? Mine acts like its running outta gas at 60ish had 122 bumped it up to a 130 main 42 idle. Got a fake 28mm nibbi. Testing new setup tomorrow. My 212 is in an Icebear Champion CT70 clone. Thats awesome you and your girl both ride! My wife thinks im going through a midlife crisis building muscle Mini bikes in the basement. 🙄 I wouldn't kick start 212. I broke teeth needed new clutch basket and kickstart gear. Flywheel went bad too. Starter chain i had to rig the spacers to take up slack used 25h. You really need to know your *hit to have this engine. Im determined to get it tuned right i know it has 75 mph in it at least. So much fun. I got the dual cooler set up looks like mini radiators and great to warm your gloves on when its cold 🥶 haha
Most people get a new clutch cable and amazon sell a hd starter chain they have a upgrade clutch for it and springs for wheelys the shift lever arm and shift star mod also a good upgrade if you kick start it you run a chance on snaping the input shaft if kicked over wrong.👌✌️👍💯 Hope it helps
So if you have an aftermarket from your 125, use that. Otherwise it has to be bend just like stock cause of the angle. Just sucks, but shouldn't be too much. I just used this amazon one, but sounds amazing: www.amazon.com/dp/B07BHMFXMD?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
No clutch cover. I had trouble with this too in the beginning. Down by the engine, you push the lever all the way over until you can't push anymore and then tighten it there and then adjust from the top.
the stock piston ring layout on the 190 2v must be setup wrong with the ring gaps in the wrong places. ever since changing to a daytona 4v head and setting them myself i havent had a drop of oil come out the breather.
Man that's good to hear. I'm going to a four valve head at some point this year. It doesn't do it in low speeds but when I'm constantly going 60+ it was leaking out like crazy.

would this fit on a 2020 vader my clutch fell off and i put it back but now it won’t move an inch in any gear i’m not sure what’s wrong took the basket apart and everything
I mean I wouldn't take it on Long rides on the interstate, but 50-60 mph areas yes. The only thing is your RPMs will stay high after about 60 so you will definitely need some sort of catch can. Sometimes it fills up after an hour or two and you'll have to empty it so I would suggest something that is easy to drain.
Thanks man. I got rid of it now but I got mine from venom motorsports. Just look up Boom Vader 125 and see who has the cheapest prices. Just make sure they ship the bike with the MCO (manufacturer certificate aka title). Don't buy a bike that ships it separately or it's a pain in the ass.
Shit I sold it, but it was just something from Amazon that caught oil from the case is all. You'll have to get creative as there isn't much space. If I had to do it again I would have had the can and bracket welded on somewhere.
@@NOLA_playmaker also i have a cooler installed on mine but only have the oil in the sightglass half full coller us up abover engine and full of oil, but if i fill the case it all comes out the vent.. still does if hammering on it for long distance
@@nollidelddik yeah that was just the case with me too. It just leaks at higher RPMs which is why I had to get the catch can. My girlfriend and I were ripping it through the mountains with a bunch of bigger bikes one day and when we stopped I noticed there was oil all over her back tire, scary as fuck! Definitely make sure you take care of it if it's leaking
This is oil cool if you rev on start up you will distroy your motor pretty fast they say to let it worm up for 5 min before you hit the gas so everything lubes. And yes if you keep hit the starter multiple times in a row it can snap back lash.👌✌️👍💯
It's been pretty good. Couple of learning curves like: - you need to catch can at those high speeds since there's a lot of oil blow by from the breather. You don't want oil getting all of your tire like it did with me. - too speed has been like 75, but cruising at 55-65 is nothing. Hills are easy too now. 5 gear makes a hell of a difference in RPM. - my girl broke her starter chain by revving the engine when she tries to start it 🙄. She learned that lesson but was cheap and easy to replace. Besides that, it's been pretty solid. As with the bike itself, you definitely need to be mechanically inclined to make up for any problems that may incur, but it's so worth it.

Haha it's a decent starter muffler. I ended up getting a better one before I sold it that was way better and deeper. Hard to sound cool at 125 or 212 lol
I'm trying to grasp the meaning of "crazy" when the highest speed you've gone was 60 on a highway...just saying, the 125CC can reach that. Perhaps it's the the fact that they're inexpensive bikes out of China. I'm reconsidering purchasing a Vader and getting a Kawasaki Z125Pro or a Honda Grom.
If your mechanically inclined and on a budget I would go with this. If you're not looking for a whole bunch of problems then get a used Grom or new one. Things will break on these bikes so you'll have to know how to fix them or at least research to fix them. In a weird way it's a fun process because you actually learn a lot more, but it just depends on you.

Does the exhaust bolt right on?
Nah. You either have to take it to a shop and get it welded which most of them don't like doing it because it's stainless steel or I think on Amazon you can buy one that is shaped properly. I can find the link.
@@NOLA_playmaker thanks bro I would appreciate that.

What is the maximum speed of the 212cc??
I've been 84 after a proper carb tune. Nothing higher than that yet. I don't think I want to go any higher than that on the size bike though LOL. I just like that it goes 55-65 with no problem whether you're on a hill or not.
@@NOLA_playmaker hell yeah! That's impressive and probably a bit sketchy going that fast on that little bike....I want one
for me those "chain saw" mufflers are annoying a F. no louder than a Harley d but they don't have the finger nail chalkboard deal.
Haha it's a decent starter muffler. I ended up getting a better one before I sold it that was way better and deeper. Hard to sound cool at 125 or 212 lol
I'm trying to grasp the meaning of "crazy" when the highest speed you've gone was 60 on a highway...just saying, the 125CC can reach that.
Perhaps it's the the fact that they're inexpensive bikes out of China.
I'm reconsidering purchasing a Vader and getting a Kawasaki Z125Pro or a Honda Grom.
125 can reach but cursing at that speed strains it
Are you selling this now?
Nah I sold it last year man.
@@NOLA_playmaker man it’s for sale now for 2400 and it’s tempting lmao
@@samuelajulip2117 oh damn really? They must be selling it then. It was in NW Arkansas.
@@NOLA_playmaker yeah that’s where it’s being sold in berryville
I live in the nwa too
Well if you know anyone looking for a bike for sale I'm selling this one and the white one. 2300 for the blue and 2000 for the white.
@@NOLA_playmaker I wish I woulda saw your channel earlier I found my buddy a grom that was wrecked 2 weeks ago and helped him fix it
@@briceknight4290 that's nice of you! Keep an eye out if you know anyone.
This or a grom
If your mechanically inclined and on a budget I would go with this. If you're not looking for a whole bunch of problems then get a used Grom or new one. Things will break on these bikes so you'll have to know how to fix them or at least research to fix them. In a weird way it's a fun process because you actually learn a lot more, but it just depends on you.
Thanks man! I have knowledge and tools to work on stuff just dont want a pos if you know what i mean
You girl drive harder than you
😂😂 She really does. She likes the speed.
I thought about fabricating a 212 in my z125
Dude you should! I'd never go back from the 212. It's perfect for the bike.
@@NOLA_playmaker I have a thumpstar I built a 212 for. Thinking of swapping it into my z125. I should just to see if I could do it. Swap efi on the 212
@@yellowveedub yeah that would be nuts. It's carbureted so no EFI needed lol
@@NOLA_playmaker modify the intake manifold for injector,. I could even get a simple digital system stand alone ECU unit. I installed one on my car. They can configure for a single cylinder. Lol. Would be silly
@@yellowveedub oh nice! Yeah that would be cool
